Immersive Meetup with Richie Rhombus
Creator of WildKindpresented by The Adventure Design Group, Epic Immersive, and WildKind
Join us on November 11th for a meetup, presentation, and conversation with the Bay Area's own Richie Rhombus, creator of WildKind, a team creating Experiences for the curious, delicate, dangerous, and wild kind. For this the talk, Richie will present the past, present and future projects of WildKind, and talk about process, ethos, and strategies that help inspire radical agency and creativity in individuals and the greater community.
Richie is perhaps best known for two projects: Appetite Obscure and Immigracious. Richie cofounded Appetite Obscure, a dining collective where interactive meals and immersive art/food experiences created new human connections. In total, Appetite Obscure launched over thirty interactive experiences -- potlucks of immersive food-based experiences, curated dining events, and adventurous expeditions.
Immigracious built on the connection between art, food, community, and emotion. Immigracious was an adventurous art-experience for immigrants to share stories and food, including historic sailboats, an island, and excellent culinary creations of the immigrants’ favorite foods.

Richie was the co-founder of Appetite Obscure, a dining collective where interactive meals and immersive-art food experiences create new human connections.
